Ecuadorian Culture
Define the cultural roots of Ecuador, is trying to find the identity of a
people. By
the way it responds to a dynamic process that occurs over time and influenced
by various factors. To
get to what we are, we first had to define a geographical area whose
characteristics are the first to weigh in our humanity and our behavior as
individuals and as a society.
The first factor to consider, then, is the territory where we have grown as Ecuadorian society, a territory inhabited from about 10,000 years BC. The first inhabitants had to develop a constant adaptability, since the first thing they had on hand was very lavish in nature but also aggressive. On one side the sea, with lush tropics where it was easy to cultivate the land with sufficient water, but at the same time has had to cope with typical tropical diseases easily transmitted. On the other hand a mountainous region with a variety of climates and microclimates as fit for survival but also affected by intense and explosive volcanism and seated in a real network faults.
It was in these two regions where the Ecuadorian man spent his entire way of being because in the eastern jungle and the Galápagos archipelago has been over migrant. The Amazonian well away small clusters of social evolution to influence the great nation of Ecuador. So then if we define our cultural roots better stick to the towns of mountains and coast.
Overall our character is that of a peaceful and laborious, but very little planner and previsivo. If the land was always good, the weather was much better. We've had four seasons, but rather two were never Contracting, temperatures never reached unbearable extremes and that allowed relatively easily survive giving us time to artistic pursuits always complementing rather unscrupulous and improviser.
The Aboriginal peoples mixed Spanish race accentuated this trend with latinismo that has earned us an explosive character, rowdy and disorderly. This brief description suggests or shows at first glance facets negative social behavior but also attest to a very creative and warm spirit adventurer who at some point has been the engine of our history.
